UEM-PurePath integration for Synthetic Monitoring

The UEM-PurePath Integration for Synthetic Monitoring lets you drill down directly from the Dynatrace Portal into Application Monitoring, showing the PurePath and UEM data related to your synthetic tests in the AppMon Client.

To use the UEM-Purepath integration for Synthetic Monitoring, you need to change a few settings on both sides of the integration:

In the Dynatrace Portal, configure the Dynatyrace AppMon settings in the Account Details page to define the AppMon Server for integration. See Account Settings in the Synthetic Monitoring help for details.

Note

Viewing Data in AppMon

To enable the integration with Synthetic Monitoring, go to the Start Center > Monitor Applications > Monitor Synthetic Transactions and select the end user perspective or server-side links that open monitoring dashboards. When using real-browser replay in Dynatrace Synthetic Monitoring, open the end user perspective view. Otherwise, open the server-side view.
